Today the presentation of the book "Interpretations of the RA Law about
insolvency (bankruptcy)" by the Chairmen of the Court of Cassation
and Appeal Court Hovhannes Manoukyan and Tigran Mukuchyan was held.
Those present at the ceremony mentioned that the Armenian law circles
needed such interpretations very much as "Armenian lawyers, advocates
and judges make use of literature published in Russia what very often
doesn't correspondent to Armenian legislation." As the Deputy of the
Justice Minister Anatoly Matevosyan said Armenian laws essentially
differ from those in Russia and CIS. As a result of absence of
interpretations of the laws the work of Armenian lawyers became
several times harder.
In the talk with Panorama.am correspondent Anatoly Matevosyan mentioned
that while delivering a judgment the Judges must follow not only
Armenian laws but also from their interpretations. "Of course a
Judge must comment on this or that point of a law himself but he
must have some basis, a kind of guidebook to follow especially now
that according to the Constitution the Court of Cassation must secure
similar use of law," he says.
In his turn the Chairman of the Court of Cassation Hovhannes Manoukyan
said that they wrote the interpretation of the "Law about insolvency"
as "it is quite a complicated law and our lawyers needed practical
help."
In reply to Panorama.am's question whether or not Armenian Judges had
much difficulty delivering judgment of cases concerning insolvency
H. Manoukyan said: "Our Judges had certain difficulties up to 2001.
After that they mastered the field already."
Besides the legal procedures of "Law about insolvency" those terms
of the Civil Code concerning with the field were also theoretically
and practically interpreted in the work.
The book was published with the financial assistance oft he USAID
(United States Agency of International Development). It was published
in limited number and was handed in to lawyers. /Panorama.am/
